Abstract: Provided are methods of treating breast cancer in a subject in need thereof comprising administering to the subject an effective amount of an inhibitor of miR-105 or an inhibitor of miR-122 are provided. Also provided herein are methods of determining a level of miR-105 or a level of miR-122 in a subject that has or is at risk for developing breast cancer. The method includes obtaining a biological sample from the subject and determining a level of miR-105 or a level of miR-122 or a combination thereof in the biological sample, wherein a higher level of miR-105 or miR-122 as compared to a control indicates that the subject has or is at risk of developing breast cancer.

Abstract: An miRNA expression signature comprising a set of one or more miRNAs associated with metastatic cancer is provided. In one embodiment, the expression signature is selected from the group consisting of miR-10b, miR-139-5p, miR-130b and miR-199b-5p. In some aspects, miR-199b-5p and miR-130b are overexpressed in metastatic cancer; and miR-10b and miR-139-5p are downregulated in metastatic cancer. Such an expression signature may be used in methods for predicting metastasis, risk for developing metastasis or a prognosis in a cancer. In another embodiment, a method for establishing such a cancer miRNA expression signature is provided.

Abstract: One aspect of the present disclosure relates to a composition comprising a DNA hypermethylation brain cancer marker on acellular DNA of a human subject. DNA hypermethylation brain cancer markers (or DNA hypermethylation markers) are frequently methylated in the DNA of brain cells and acellular DNA of individuals suffering from brain cancer. These DNA hypermethylation markers are not frequently methylated in the DNA of brain cells and acellular DNA of individuals who do not suffer from brain cancer. Another aspect of the present disclosure relates to a method of diagnosing brain cancer in a human subject comprising providing a sample containing acellular DNA from the human subject, determining whether one or more DNA hypermethylation markers on the acellular DNA are hypermethylated, and diagnosing brain cancer when the DNA hypermethylation markers are hypermethylated.
